[It takes Fai a while before he moves the device away to reveal a sign. For once it isn't a sign of the Cat's Eye. No instead of the usual cat face there appears to be a dog's face. As Fai steps back with the device it slowly becomes clear that he wasn't at the Cat's Eye and was instead in another city altogether.


Good evening everyone. As people should know I had been discussing opening a new cafe. After nearly a year of being here surprisingly I have finally got a new cafe. I decided to keep with my theme of animal names, so say hello to the Dog's Paw Cafe.

[He turns it around to show in the the building. It was obvious which city he was in. He was in Attleton.]

It will officially open at the beginning of May, but I won't be the one managing it. No, I have officially picked a new manager. So say congratulations to Flonne~ Who will be the new manager of the Dog's Paw. I'm sure she will do a wonderful job.

It was honestly a tough decision but I feel like this will be the right choice. [He just smiles slightly, he had another reason for picking her, at least for now. If this ends up working out, he was wondering what he would do then.]

I believe that is all I wanted to say. Except to please come to Attleton on the 1st for the Grand Opening~

Why a dog for a mascot?

[behindthefakesmile]

Because my last cafe has a cat theme, so why not a dog for this one?

[vulpinecurses]

Dogs are annoying, that's all.

[behindthefakesmile]

Oh, dogs can be rather grumpy at times, but I've never found them to be annoying.

A new cafe! What a lovely idea, Fai-san~

Clow and I will definitely come for that Grand Opening. Tell me, Fai-san, are they going to sell pastries there? If they do, [Yuuko presses her hands against her cheek and sighs with a dreamy expression on her face.] I'm sure they're going to taste delicious~

[Video]

[behindthefakesmile]

I thought so as well. Hopefully by next year I'll have five cafes. One for each city.

[He nodded slightly.] They will be. Anything and everything on this menu will have been chosen by me and the manager. So I can assure you they will be delicious. This reminds me... ,small>[he can't help but give a small laugh for what he is about to say.]

You know I never repaid you for the fondant that one time like I was meant to. Well how about my gift to be something baked? Or perhaps a discount card or something.

[yuuwish]

Ara, ara, Fai-san~ You've always known the ways to my heart. And you know delicious cakes and good company are among my favorite. [She winks at him.] I trust you to come up with the best gift idea.

[Video]

[behindthefakesmile]

Oh, I will. I should know you well enough by now after all.

[He's wondering if he should maybe add a drink or two to it.]

[reedfate]

Oh? A cafe, Fai?

{ Clow smiled, his eyes never opening, in typical Clow Reed fashion. He could see Fai running a successful business, sure. }

What will you be serving? I wouldn't mind paying a visit.

[ video ]

[behindthefakesmile]

Yes. This is my second one. Since the first one was so popular, I thought why not.

[How he managed to run one is honestly anyone's guess when he tries so hard to not have to do so much.]

Well... At the moment I have out in a variety of cheesecakes, pastries and if you can think of it odds are we'll have it.

[reedfate]

A bakery, hm? That sounds tempting.

{ That would go nice with his tea. }

I think Yuuko and I would be happy to stop by.

[She knows she was one of the people considered for the job, but to hear this was still surprising. At first she's not sure what to say, but then she smiles brightly, cheeks flushed a light red.]

R-Really? Thank you so much, Fai-san! I won't let you down!

[redsnowangel]

Congratulations, Flonne-hunny~ Don't worry, I'm sure a little cutey like you will do just fine.

[He chuckled, giving her a small wink. Truth be told, he wasn't too disappointed - whilst it would prove Fai trusted him, he was rather content where he was now.]

Video; Apologies for the threadjack...

[forever_prince]

[Have a Laharl poking his head up over Flonne's shoulder, glaring murderous daggers at Zelos. Step off, old man.]

Video;

[ainoakuma]

Thank you! I'll make sure things run smoothly.

[Unlike Laharl, she's used to his flirtatious ways, so she doesn't think much of it; although it was questionable that she even noticed.]

[behindthefakesmile]

Great~ I know that you won't, but it's still nice to know.

[forever_prince]

[Hey Fai, meet Flonne's permanently surly pint-sized boyfriend. Might've seen him around when he claimed to OWN THIS ENTIRE DIMENSION. He's kinda nuts.]

A tough choice, huh? What, are you saying she wasn't good enough to be the only choice?

[behindthefakesmile]

[He does remember you from that one time. He did not take that at all seriously.]

All of my staff have to be taken into consideration. It just happened to perform higher than anyone else.

[forever_prince]

[He gets that a lot actually.]

Of course she performed higher! That should've been obvious before she even took the job! She's one of my top vassals, only the best of the best get to that rank!

[Huff.]

Even considering someone else is an insult to me.

[whiteas]

Congratulations on your second store.

video;

[behindthefakesmile]

Thank you. I never would have thought to do something like this before. But after being here nearly a year... Well if I'm here for a while might as well be able to live here.

[whiteas]

That lesson's been going around. There's still a chance we're all going to get sent home in the blink of an eye, but personally? I'd rather aim for a future instead of expecting there not to be one. I think you've made the right choice.

[ Not that she came to that conclusion as easily as she sounds like she did. ]

[Video]

[redsnowangel]

So you're going with a dog theme this time, hm? I'll have to come and check it out.

[Video]

[behindthefakesmile]

Yes, of course. It made sense at the time. Would you have done the same thing?

[Video]

[redsnowangel]

Dunno, I've always been more of a cat person, myself.

[Truth be told, Colette's fixation with dogs back in their world had rather put him off them.]

Still~ Congrats, looks like it's gonna work out pretty well for you. I knew you couldn't get rid of me that easily, Fai-hunny~

[You started this flirting thing, Fai. It's all your fault he's trying the petnames.]
